- Develop and improve workflows, business rules, client scripts, forms, and UI policies.

- Experience building and supporting REST and SOAP integrations.
- Experience creating ServiceNow dashboards, reports, and KPIs.
- Working knowledge of ServiceNow ITSM, including Incident, Problem, Change, and Request Management.
- Understanding of ServiceNow platform upgrades, patching, and troubleshooting.

- Strong troubleshooting, communication, and problem-solving skills.
- Ability to work independently and collaborate with technical teams and customers.
- Active Secret security clearance with TS/SCI eligibility.
- U.S. Citizenship required.
Education & ExperienceCandidates must meet one of the following:
